Contrary to some peoples two cents worth,
I think your results were very good, the most acurate
as to what you saw.
Some people are so anal in judging their own as well
as others pictures when it comes to personal taste over
capturing a rendition of the actual secene, that they rarely
produce any of their own images.

clearly this comment was directed at me, since I was the only one saying anything critical about HDR. I can assure you, I produce my own images, daily.
